"This recipe is from my mother, Mildred Unger, who made it at Christmas for many years. It was a real family favorite. Like everything else, bacon makes spinach even better."

  1. This was fast and easy. I used light sour cream and cut the nutmeg down (did not measure, just used what tasted good). After tasting, I added a spoonful of light cream cheese which made it perfect for me. Thanks for sharing! [Made for Spring 2013 Pick A Chef]
     
  2. Very good! I was a bit worried about the moisture content, so after cooking I then sauteed the spinach to dry it out a bit. I did cut the nutmeg by half, I thought it would be too overpowering at that amount. I also added some salt and pepper. Thanks for posting! Made for Spring PAC 2013<br/>An update: I had some leftovers and some leftover spaghetti with Parmesan and olive oil on it, so I mixed the spinach with the pasta. A terrific new dish! Thanks again!
